Identity and asset risk score intelligence and threat mitigation

ABSTRACT

Techniques are provided that produce a risk profile consisting of a risk score and trends of risk scores across entities such as user identities and other objects. For example, an identity is assigned a risk score which is based on baseline factors such as HR attributes, such as training and screening status; access to and conflicts across physical, logical, and operational systems; historical and current usage of these systems, as well as anomalies from normal behavior patterns. Techniques herein encompass the management of a risk profile (“behavior profile”) for each entity, e.g. identity, and maintains a risk score that is correlated with behavior, e.g. an individual&#39;s behavior, to track anomalies or irregularities in every day routines of the entity, e.g. individual.

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This patent application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/800,351, filed Mar. 15, 2013, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by this reference thereto.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Technical Field

This invention relates generally to the field of computer-related methodologies for handling complex risk and security challenges of an enterprise. More specifically, this invention relates to computing an asset risk score and providing threat mitigation.

2. Description of the Related Art

Insider threat is always present and manifests itself in many ways. A malicious insider has the potential to cause more damage to an organization and has many advantages over an outside attacker. For example, they have legitimate and often privileged access to facilities and information, have knowledge of the organization and its processes, and know the location of critical or valuable assets. Insiders may know how, when, and where to attack and how to cover their tracks. For instance, an individual who was given two weeks' notice before being terminated and who is disgruntled can access a facility during off hours. Today, a disgruntled employee, i.e. an insider threat, can wreak havoc on IT systems, financial system, physical facilities, etc., because not all insider threats are monitored correctly, if at all.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Techniques are provided that produce a risk profile consisting of a risk score and trends of risk scores across entities such as user identities and other objects. For example, an identity is assigned a risk score which is based on baseline factors such as HR attributes, such as training and screening status; access to and conflicts across physical, logical, and operational systems; historical and current usage of these systems, as well as anomalies from normal behavior patterns. Techniques herein encompass the management of a risk profile (“behavior profile”) for each entity, e.g. identity, and maintains a risk score that is correlated with behavior, e.g. an individual's behavior, to track anomalies or irregularities in every day routines of the entity, e.g. individual.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIGS. 1-9. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a high level risk scoring solution architecture. Baseline scoring data including but not limited to identity data, access data, training, screenings, and incidents data, and historical activity data are inputted into an identify warehouse. Identity warehouse hosts, but is not limited to hosting, an identity profile, access information, risk score information, and behavior pattern data regarding individuals. As well, identity warehouse contains a risk scoring and predictive analytics engine that runs on Hadoop, SAP HANA, etc. It should be appreciated that the particular details are by way of example only and are not meant to be limiting.

The embodiment also is configured for ongoing monitoring. Behavior and anomaly processes and data enable but are not limited to enabling monitoring riles and providing predictive analytics. Changes and behaviors processes and data enable but are not limited to enabling or monitoring identity changes, training and screenings failures, and violations.

The embodiment is also configured for responding to the monitoring processes by a response and alerting component. The component is configured to provides but is not limited to providing reports, analytics, and alerts.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 2, which is a compilation of four sample screen shots of the risk scoring dashboard. The four reports are color-coded and include median risk score, risk score bar chart, risk score heat map, and number of work items by time period.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 3, a sample screen shot showing risk score by actor as a drill down. For business unit, IT, a list of actors, their respective user risk scores, and a data are displayed.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 4, a sample screen shot of a summary view for viewing or modifying an identity. A summary page for a particular contractor is displayed. On this page, the user can view and modify the identity by selecting an action or create a request by selecting a request category from a dropdown box.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 5, a sample screen shot of a profile view for viewing or modifying the profile of an identity. The profile information can include but is not limited to including name, social security number (optionally disguised so as not to be shown), badge identification number, employee type, and so on.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 6, a sample screen shot of a roles view for viewing or modifying the roles of an identity. For example, generated and displayed are roles names, status, data, last recertified, and recertified by. It should be appreciated that these details are by way of example only and are not meant to be limiting.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 7, a sample screen shot of a training view for viewing or modifying the training/certification of an identity. By way of example only and not meant to be limiting, generated and displayed are training or certification, status, attest date, attested by, and expiration date.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 8, a sample screen shot of a screening view for viewing or modifying the types of screening associated with an identity. By way of example only and not meant to be limiting, generated and displayed are screening name, status, date, last recertified, and recertified by. Examples of types of screenings are background checks, drug test, ICS training, yearly compliance training, and the like.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 9, a sample screen shot of a behavioral patter view for viewing the user risk score built on behavior, activity, access, and usage. Determined and displayed are information regarding physical access system access, personnel information, and human resources information. For the physical access display, three types of alerts are shown such as access attempts outside of their normal working hours, access inactivity (over 30 days without use), and history of access issues.

An embodiment of the invention can be understood with reference to FIG. 10, a schematic diagram of the data schema. For example, data block are defined for but are not limited to a risk rule, activity data, risk score factors, and so on. For ease of reading, FIG. 10 has been split into two parts, namely, FIG. 10A and FIG. 10B.

Exemplary Risk Profile and Risk Score Requirements

An exemplary embodiment can include but is not limited to including the following components or processes from a user's perspective, but not limited to being from a user's perspective. It should be appreciated that particular details are by way of example only and that one skilled in the art would readily recognize that certain substitutions, additions, or omissions can be made without altering the scope of the invention.

Data Source Integration.

In an embodiment, the risk engine is capable of being a stand-alone product. It has its own data infrastructure capable of processing heavy volumes of quick reads and writes. It is required to interface with the Identity Warehouse as its main source of information to compute an identity's risk score and profile. The risk engine has its own data structure to capture data related to behavioral patterns such as time of entry in an access point, badge-out times, as well as remediation data such as alerts and actions. The component is configured to work with other vendors' identity warehouses.

Dashboards.

As an end-user or admin who has been given permission to run the risk dashboard, he or she desired to be able to run a heat-map chart dashboard referred to herein as Risk Scores By Business Unit. This could be location, cost center, division, etc. This configuration allows the user to select Business Units to chart. The aggregated median risk scores for those departments are charted, color-coded, with legends and the percent distribution. The heat map regions are clickable, which invokes a popup window of another pie chart that breaks down the distribution of contributing factors, e.g. training or usage, for the selected department. There is further drill down, i.e. when the pie slice is clicked, another window pops up with a statistical distribution chart. Further drill down can happen when the user clicks on a section of the distribution chart, for example, top 2%. Only the department members who fall on that percentage appear in the list.

When a name is clicked, it can open another window that shows the user the Identity View of the person, which can also show the drill-down of why the person has that score. One skilled in the art can readily refer to FIGS. 1-9 as well as FIGS. 11-19, described hereinbelow.

It should be appreciated that the drill-downs are role-based and consider security permissions, i.e. the person cannot drill down to data that he/she does not have permissions to view.

An end-user or admin allowed to run dashboards is able to run a pie-chart of company-wide distribution of contributing factors. Depending on the end-user or admin's permissions, he or she is able to drill down on those contributing factors into specific distribution.

An end-user or admin has the option to run a comparative departmental or other organizational (cost center, location, division etc.) trend analysis chart on selected departments. For example, the chart can be a line graph with the risk score totals per department as shown in FIG. 17.

An end-user or admin is able to run a dashboard that allows the end user or admin to view over x months, a department or organization's (cost center, location, division etc.) risk contributing factors. Time and other criteria are selectable as filters/scope as shown in FIG. 17.

An end-user or admin is able to run a comparative trend charts on selected departments (cost center, location, division etc.). For example, the chart may be a line graph with the median or average score per department. The x-axis can represent the time as shown in FIG. 17.

It should be appreciated that a median is the middle number when all scores are sorted from lowest to highest. For example, if the scores are 1, 3, 6, 8, 9, the median is 6. In the case of an even number of scores, the two middle numbers are averaged out. An average is the total of all scores divided by the number of scores.

Change of Access.

As an approver of a change of access, the end-user can view the number of points a person's risk score will increase when the end-user approves the request, as part of the approval process. The end-user can also see the current risk score of the person. See for example FIG. 16. The system is configured such that real-time modifications of the risk score via access changes, mitigations and associated trainings to reduce the risk score are allowed.

A change in role or access can swing a risk score. This event is detected during a change of access resulting from a user/data/role reconciliation process.

Events such as accounts added, modified, deleted, enabled or disabled directly in a resource may impact the risk score. An embodiment provides for checkboxes for enabling risk calculation in a Resource Reconciliation Policy page, for example in FIG. 19. The configuration of the score assignments are in a setup configuration page.

Risk Remediation.

An embodiment provide means to reduce risk by:

-   -   Removal of access;     -   Training assignments; and     -   Mitigation assignment (after the fact).

An embodiment provides a pre-defined (out of the box) rule that can be used by a Certification process, e.g. Certify project by AlertEnterprise, when the risk exceeds a defined threshold.

An embodiment has pre-defined (out of the box) rule that can be used by a process, e.g. a Certify project, to incorporate risk into the list of users for a project. For example, an embodiment contemplates the following functionality:

-   -   recertify access to all users with critical-risk score monthly;     -   recertify access to all users with high-risk quarterly;     -   notify manager of access to all users with medium risk         quarterly;     -   initiate alerts with associated standard operating procedures         (sop); and     -   send email to manager of risky access.

An embodiment provides an out of the box sample implementation of a certify process, e.g. a Certify project, that warns managers of training about to expire, example, in 15 days.

The solution allows for bulk mitigation actions, such as ad-hoc certification, for high-risk user populations discovered via reporting or analytics.

Risk Calculation.

An embodiment provides an indication in a configuration page that Risk Scoring is enabled or disabled. If enabled is checked, the application warns the admin to make sure he needs to do these steps before the risk score will get enabled (1) allocate risk points for each contributing factor in the configuration page (2) runs a job that calculates the risks for all identities for the first time. Without these steps, the risk scores may not get the baseline points. If the Risk Scoring is disabled, then no calculations are being done throughout the application. If silent mode, calculations are being carried out, but actions and alerts are not enabled.

An admin can configure Identity/user profile attributes from authoritative sources such as HR/Contractor databases (DB) that are to be used to influence a person's baseline risk score, such as location, department, employee status. Corresponding points can be entered in the configuration screen. The admin is enabled to enter composite/complex rules such as for example:

-   -   If location=“SJC”, then risk=4. If Location=“OAK”, then risk=4.     -   But if location is both “SJC” AND “OAK”, then risk=6.

An admin is able to configure attributes related to training and screening validity and status as contributing factors to a risk score. The admin can enter their corresponding points in the configuration page.

Examples of these factors are: training expired, background check expired, background check failed, and training failed.

An admin can configure Access contributing factors and their corresponding points in a configuration page.

Importantly, the admin is to associate risk/sensitivity levels at either/or and combinations of

-   -   System level (CIP Asset, PII DB, PHI DB, Credit Card DB etc.);     -   Roles (Accounts Payable, etc.);     -   Entitlements (Create New Business Account etc.); and     -   SOD's (Create Account & Pay Bill).

The expected risk/sensitivity levels are as above and Low, Medium, High and Critical with expected score impacts.

Examples of access factors are: SOD's and associated levels, Roles, Entitlements to physical, IT and operational systems that are deemed more sensitive and critical than others, such as CIP assets, credit card database tables, PII tables (personal identifiably information), PHI (personal health information), system tables, etc.

An admin can enter Usage contributing factors and their corresponding points in a configuration page.

Examples of usage factors are: SOD violation levels, repeated failed badge swipes, inactivity, etc. A list of triggering events can be referred to in the later part of this discussion. As well, usage factors can be related to/based on the risk associations defined hereinabove.

An admin can enter Ad Hoc contributing factors and their corresponding points in a configuration page.

It should be appreciated that an embodiment provides a separate requirement for a manual data entry screen for incidents/violations.

Risk Calculation—Rule Builder.

The Rule Builder in the configuration page is flexible in that the user can add values to the drop-down lists in the same interface. The Rule Builder in the configuration page is flexible in that the user can add a category of contributing factors.

As an admin/end-user with ownership to run it, the admin is enabled to click on a “Risk Distribution of Identity Population”. This produces a graph or chart that shows the score distribution of all users. This can be a graph/plot of number of users v/s score, i.e. statistical ideal is a bell curve. One purpose is tell the admin whether the scores for the department is appropriate, it might be too high or too low. This is a visualization to enable the admin/end-user to see if there are too many users with high scores.

In the configuration page, the admin is able to click on a “Preview the Identity Population”. This produces a graph or chart that shows the score distribution of all users. This should be a graph/plot of number of users v/s score, i.e. statistical ideal is a bell curve. One purpose is tell the admin whether the baseline scoring that he has assigned to HR attributes might be too high or too low. This is a simulation tool to give the admin visibility that the points allocated are realistic and to enable the admin to see if there are too many users with high scores.

Risk scores can be calculated at real-time, i.e. whenever an event happens that is considered a contributing factor. These events can include real-time and reconciliation or batch based events. The score can increment by those points. The identity view can reflect the change of score, as well as any view that shows the score of a person, e.g. dashboards, change of access.

When an admin changes the points allocated in the risk configuration page, there is a warning that indicates he needs to run a batch job that recalculates everybody's scores.

In an embodiment, the application can provide a batch job to recalculate the risk scores. The job can be filtered by department, by division, by location, but the default can be for all identities. This is used when the formula and risk points for contributing factors have changed. In an embodiment, the option for this job can be paged so that it can be run in chunks.

Application or Resource Risk.

In an embodiment, risk score are assigned to applications or resources based on factors such as number of orphans, dormant, shared or service accounts. This process can be referred to as Resource Risk Scoring and can be combined with the risk associated with the resource itself.

Audit.

An embodiment is configured for tracking of risk scores over time for trending analysis. An audit trail can keep track of what was incremented or decremented from the risk score, what event happened, and the date/time it happened. The event or contributing factor can be specific whether it was from a real-time change or from a reconciliation/background process.

An audit trail for the administrator who maintains the risk configuration page can be maintained. Useful information are: change that happened, who made the change, when the change was made.

Content Pack.

An embodiment includes a standard library of risk templates to speed configuration and deployment of a risk-based compliance methodology.

Ad Hoc Incident Entry Form.

In accordance with an embodiment, a solution can allow for the end-user, given the right permissions, to manually enter incidents, citations, violations. The following fields can be captured: date/time, person involved (search from identity master), incident description, criticality (high, medium, low). The ID of the person entering the record can be captured from the login. The task is workflow driven and can be forwarded to an approver, with notes and attachments capability. The event of creating this record can go into an audit trail. The event cannot show up in the History of the identity in the Identity View. Only certain administrators can view this data. These incidents can contribute to the risk score based on the configurations.

Ad Hoc Incident Report.

An embodiment is configured to generate a report of the ad hoc incidents, filtered by date ranges or the person who reported the incident.

Report Builder.

An embedment is configured to expose the Report Builder and an Identity Warehouse view so that consultants on premise and the customer cannot be dependent on engineering on creating specific reports.

Watch List.

In accordance with an embodiment, everyone on the watch list can automatically generate real-time alerts regardless of type of activity for sensitive/risky systems. It should be appreciated that the behavior or the risk score does not matter.

An admin/security-admin can configure the risk score that adds a person to the watch list. The person who owns the identity is not able to see that they are on the watch list or their score.

An admin/security-admin can check a checkbox in the Identity Profile that says “Add to Watch List”. The person who owns the identity should not be able to see this checkbox.

Business Intelligence and Big Data Analysis.

An embodiment provides a solution that is able to interface with Big Data Analytics platform such as Hadoop, Autonomy and/or SAP Hana.

Behavior Pattern Capture.

In an embodiment, the solution is able to capture behavior patterns. For each person, the system captures all the events (time of badge in, lobby entry, time of badge out, etc.), the median of the time the event happens over a time range (time range is configurable), the standard deviation over the course of time range, and what it was same time last year. Only admins with the permissions are able to view these aggregated entries.

Abnormal Behavior Pattern Recognition.

An embodiment provides a solution that is able to identify anomalous behavior. This can be time-based or location-based departure from his normal behavior. The number of anomalous events that happens in a sequence that can trigger an alert can be configurable as an action rule. Part of the configuration can be the increment to the risk score.

If the person is attempting to access an asset, access point, or system that is considered critical, an alert is issued out right away if the customer chooses to. This is configured in an action rule which may or may not be activated. Part of the configuration is the increment to the risk score.

If the person is attempting to access an asset, access point, or system that he does not even have access to, an alert is issued out right away if the customer chooses to. This is configured in an action rule which may or may not be activated, along with the increment in the risk score, if any. This is based on the principle that a person should not even attempt to use his/her badge in an area that he is not allowed entry.

A lack of badge-in event is considered an anomaly and can be looked at as part of a sequence of abnormal events. An alert can be issued, which is configurable. The increment to the risk score is also configurable.

A new hire can be given an x-day probation period, whereby his events are recorded but are not alerted out as abnormal behavior. This is because he has no history recorded yet, and the solution may most likely trigger an alert. X should be configurable. This does not override other alerts, only for the behavior anomaly recognition.

If a person is rehired into the same position he/she can be given a probation period, wherein his/her events are not recorded but are not alerted out as abnormal behavior. This is because the end user's history may not be appropriate given the new role.

This does not override other alerts, only for the behavior anomaly recognition.

If a person is transferred into a different position, the system treats him as a new hire, i.e. he is given an x-day probation, where his events are recorded but are not alerted out as abnormal behavior. This does not override other alerts, only for the behavior anomaly recognition.

Asset Criticality Configuration.

In an embodiment, in the assets section a table and UI are provided such that criticality or sensitivity levels of assets/access points can be configured.

Configuration.

In an embodiment, a risk scoring/predictive analytics admin is able to configure in a screen the following: the number of days probation for new hire, the risk score increment for a new hire, the number of days for a person who just got transferred, time range for calculating the median, and standard deviation of the same event per person.

Predictive Analytics UI.

An embodiment provides a graphical representation of a person's behavior patterns that can be invoked using filters. Filters can be the events, the time range, etc. One can drill down into the data depending on the portion of the graph that is clicked. Raw data can be shown, as well as the identity profile of the person.

Display Risk in Certify Project.

In an embodiment, when the approver opens a certification process window such as a Certify project, he can see the risk score for each of the users.

Display Risk in Alert Action Alert.

An embodiment display the risk score of the person that produced the alert.

One or more embodiments of the invention can be described with reference to FIGS. 11-19. FIG. 11 is a graph of a statistical distribution of a risk score. FIG. 12 is a colorized graph of a particular departmental dashboard of risk score totals. FIG. 13 is a colorized graph at drill down level 1, a view of risk distribution for the training department. FIG. 14 is a table at drill down level 2 of identities who belong to the IT department. FIG. 15 is an identity view with the risk score at drill down level 3. FIG. 16 is a view of events that contributed to the score at drill down level 4. FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram showing mock-ups of comparative dashboards by department. FIG. 18 is a mock-up configuration screen of various input factors. In an embodiment, the rule builder is more flexible than as described herein. FIG. 19 is a mockup of resource reconciliation policy page where an event trigger can be configured as a risk. In an embodiment, a score increment can be assigned/decided on these event triggers.

Exemplary Use Cases and Reference Implementation with Risk Score Impact

Below is a table, namely, Table A, that outlines the risk score impacts based on the identity behavior, in accordance with an embodiment. In the embodiment, a risk score baseline is established upon on-boarding of the identity. the baseline is assigned based on the risk profile. The identity starts off with a perfect score, and starts incrementing as contributing factors in his risk profile are assigned, such as location or department. The score continues to get higher as access to high risk systems or roles are assigned. the score gets recomputed regularly as usage data in the identity store gets populated, such as violations. The higher the score, the higher the risk. It should be appreciated that the risk score may be a positive or negative number.

An Exemplary Risk Scoring Job Sequence

An exemplary risk scoring job sequence can be understood with reference to FIG. 20. At step 1, a risk score job is executed at an engine, Riskscore Job 2002. At step 2, a job is run which reads lists of datasources from a database using Hadoop's DBInputFormat object. The job uses DBOutputFormat to generate the reduced data files. At risk score JobClient 2004, the Hadoop JobClient object, uses the configured JobConf object. At step 3, the Hadoop DBIntputFormat object creates splits from the list of datasrouces so that each datasource is mapped as a single task assigned to a Hadoop datanode, as performed by DataSources DBInputFormat 2006. At step 4, each mapper extracts information/events from a datasource and collects by userid. In case of simulation the mapper merges the extracted data/events with the simulation data/events sent. The mapper collects the data/event by entity id. These operation are performed by DataSource Mapper 2008. At step 5, DataSourcesDBInputFormat 2006 performs the map operation. At step 6, DataSource Extractor 2010 performs an extractor operation. Utility class(es) extract incremental or full data from specific types of datasource optionally for specified users (used for simulation). At step 7, DataSource Extractor 2010 sends data back to DataSource Mapper 2008. At step 8, DataSource Mapper 2008 sends data back to Risk Score JobClient 2004. At step 9, the reduce operation is called by RuleEvaluation Reducer 2012, which is a Hadoop Reducer that is responsible for calculating risk score or the risk level using matched rules. At step 10, Rule Engine 2014 calls a match rule operation and returns the results to RuleEvaluation Reducer 2012 at step 11. At step 12, RiskScore Calculator calculates the risk score and returns the results to RuleEvaluation Reducer 2012 at step 13. At step 14, RiskScore Calculator 2016 calculates the risk level and returns the results to RuleEvaluation Reducer 2012 at step 15. At step 16, RuleEvaluation Reducer 2012 sends data to Risk Score JobClient 2004. At step 17, Risk Score JobClient 2004 invokes RiskEvaluation DBOutputFormat 2018, where the Hadoop DBOutputFormat is used to format userid, risk score, risk level, data source names, and readable rule and data values for matched rules. The results are sent to Risk Score JobClient 2004 at step 18. At step 19, Risk Score JobClient 2004 sends results back to Riskscore Job 2002.

Exemplary High Level and Technical Designs for Risk Score Calculation, Risk Score Data and Event Extraction from Data Sources, and Risk Score and Risk Level Calculation

An embodiment includes but is not limited to the following high level and technical designs for Risk Score Calculation, Risk Score Data and Event Extraction from Data sources, and Risk Score and Risk Level Calculation. It should be appreciated that the details are exemplary only, i.e. for purposes of understanding, and are not meant to be limiting. One skilled in the art would readily recognize substitutions, additions, and omissions that are possible and that are within the scope of the herein described invention.

Risk Score Calculation.

High Level Design

-   -   1) Create a new Quartz Job implementing InterruptableJob and         IParameterizedJob called:         -   “Risk Score Job”.     -   2) Parameters for the Job:         -   Run Job for Entity Type: Dropdown of supported entity types:             ‘Identity’, ‘Assets’. Should include an additional entry in             the dropdown labeled “All Entity Types”—this is the default             value of the dropdown.         -   Match Attribute: Dropdown of selected entity type's             available attributes. Can include an additional entry in the             dropdown labeled “No attribute—match condition”—as the             default value of the dropdown         -   Match Value: A text box to enter attribute value         -   Score Calculation: A dropdown with values “Full” (default             value for this dropdown), “Incremental”.

It should be appreciated that the above parameters allow the user to customize the job by specific entity type vs for all entities, do not condition vs condition on an attribute, i.e. value match, and finally, full (re)calculation vs incremental calculation.

-   -   3) Risk Score Job's execute( )method: It should be appreciated         that the job parameters are passed on to both the mappers and         reducers via the Hadoop's JobConf object. Additional parameters         can also be passed in case of simulation (see point 5 below).     -   4) When invoking the hadoop job, a list of data sources are used         as an input file which is “split” using either DBInputFormat or         other text based Input Format objects. Each invocation of the         mapper expects a key/value pair with data source information.     -   5) Simulation: This Quartz Job implementation class can also be         used for the purpose of simulation. The simulate( ) method can         expect Entity Type, list of entities, list of Data sources and         their corresponding data/events in the format extracted from         data sources, e.g. conversion to uniform format can be performed         in the mapper. The parameters received for the purpose of         simulation can be passed on to the mapper and reducer as is.         Technical Design     -   1) Create a new pojo called HadoopJobStatus in ALNTFabric which         can get persisted to db, i.e it needs a hbm file. Other fields         can be ‘type’ of hadoop job (for risk score calculation:         ‘scheduled’ job execution or ‘simulation’ or ‘adhoc’), date/time         started, date/time ended. These parameters can be expanded as         needed. This class can be used later for tracking other types of         hadoop jobs as well.     -   2) Before hadoop is invoked to calculate risk score (for either         scheduled job execution or simulation or adhoc), create a new         instance of HadoopJobStatus and save it in the database first.         The generated id can be used as the <hadoop job status id>.     -   3) The <hadoop job status id> from above is used as root for         input/output directories in both HDFS and local files system.     -   4) The quartz job queries for data sources from db (using         existing services/dao) and generates the data sources list file         in local file system. The format of generated file is         <key>\t<value>, i.e tab separated key value pairs. The key is         the data source name and the value is xml string such as below:

<riskscore-input>   <datasource-type>Incident</datasource-type>   <!-- will expand as needed --> </riskscore-input>.

It should be appreciated that the data sources list can potentially be big based on customer's environment and configured rules.

-   -   5) The quartz job specifies <hadoop job status id>+“/input” as         hdfs directory for “put” as well as input directory for “jar”         commands.     -   6) The quartz job specifies <hadoop job status id>+“/output” as         the output path for the “jar” command. The output file can         potentially be large based on number of entities (such as users)         that end up in risk score calculation.     -   7) The quartz job is responsible for using “get” to read         hadoop's output into local file system and process as needed.         The output file can be of format: <key>\t<value>, i.e tab         separated key value pairs. The key is the entity id (such as         user id) and the value is xml string with format such as below:

  <riskscore-output>     <entity-id>1234</entity-id> <!-- repeating the key here ... easier to parse later -->     <riskscore>550</riskscore>     <rule-match>       <rule-desc>user friendly rule name for displaypurpose </rule-desc>       <data-match>         <attr-match>           <attr-name>attr name</attr-name>           <attr-value>attr value</attr-value>         <attr-match>         <!-- repeat attr-match as needed>       </data-match>     </rule-match>     <!-- repeat rule match as needed -->   </riskscore-output>

-   -   8) The quartz job processes the hdfs output as follows for each         entity in the output file. It is important to commit data         related to one entity at a time to avoid long holding of locks         on the effected tables, i.e keep the db transactions short to         avoid UI ‘clocking’.     -   9) For scheduled job execution and adhoc call: clean all the         previous risk score output records for the entity id and then         insert all the data from xml format to db tables. It is         contemplated that the db tables are designed to store risk score         output.     -   10) For simulation call return only the entity id and risk score         as a hashmap and disregard other information to ensure memory         usage is only as needed.         Risk Score Data and Event Extraction from Data Sources.         High Level Design

Hadoop Mapper: This implementation of hadoop mapper expects the job parameters in the configure( ) method's JobConf parameter and conditions the processing based on the parameters in JobConf object.

-   -   1) The implementation of map( )method expects a key/value         representing the datasource for which the extraction is being         currently done. The mapper extracts data/events only for the         data source received in the key/value. The mapper uses data         source specific utility classes for data/event extraction.     -   2) Irrespective of the data source, the extracted data/event is         converted to a uniform data format for later processing step by         reducer.     -   3) The mapper collects the extracted data/events into the output         collector using the entity type and entity id encoded as the         key.     -   4) Simulation support: This is the mapper needed to support         simulation. For the purpose of simulation, the JobConf object         available in configure( )method can be used to receive         additional entity type, entity id, data sources and the         data/events that are to be converted to uniform data format and         collected by output collector grouped by entity type and entity         id encoded as key.     -   5) The reducer can thus use the information to reduce and         calculate risk score and risk level.         Technical Design

Create an interface IDataSource, with at least one method “extract”. The classes implementing this interface are responsible for extracting data from the data source passed as parameter in the extract method. This is used by mappers.

Create a factory class called DataSourceFactory, which is responsible for creating an instance of data source implementing IDataSource interface based on the type of data source (one IDataSource implementation is available for each supported data source type). Register it as a bean in spring context

Create a mapper called DataSourceMapper, which is responsible for using DataSourceFactory to create an instance of IDataSource and starts the extraction process.

Risk Score and Risk Level Calculation.

High Level Design

1) Rule Evaluation Reducer: This implementation of hadoop reducer expects entity type and entity id encoded as the key and the data/events from various data sources for that entity as values. The reducer invokes Rule Engine for any rule matches. It invokes the Risk score calculator to determine the risk score and risk level based on matched rules. 2) The output of the reducer is entity type, entity id, risk score, risk level, string representation of rule, e.g. in case rule changes after calculation, data values, e.g. to be able to inspect the values which resulted in the rule match in case data changes after calculation. 3) The output can be saved to db using DBOutputFormat object or a custom output format object that works well with existing fabric infrastructure. Technical Design 1) Create an interface IRiskScoreService, with at least one method “calculate”. The class implementing this interface is responsible for calculating risk score for each user in the list of users and the corresponding data/events. 2) Create an implementation class RiskScoreService implementing IRiskScoreService. Register it with spring context 3) Create a reducer called RiskScoreReducer, which is responsible for using IRiskScoreService and invokes the calculate method. This will be used to reduce for list users and return calculated risk score for each user.

An Exemplary Risk Score and Risk Level Algorithm

In an embodiment, a risk score of an entity such as user is the total sum of all the scores contributed by the matching rules. Thus, if an entity matches 5 rules and each rule contributes 25 points, then the risk score of the entity is 125. It should be appreciated that unless restricted at configuration time, the risk scores can potentially be large numbers when the rule contribution scores are large. In an embodiment, it is recommended that the possible rule score contributions are restricted to a range of values, such as for example 0 to 100, to avoid variable value overflows in case of many rule matches and to avoid overly skewed data, i.e. some rules have tiny scores and some have extremely large scores.

In an embodiment, the risk level of an entity is a mapping of the risk score to a value between 0 and 100. To determine the risk level of an entity, following are two approaches in accordance with one or more embodiments herein:

-   -   Risk level is percentile (or similar) score of all the         calculated risk scores of all the entities. The algorithm         involves first calculating risk scores of all the entities and         then determines the percentile of each entity with respect to         other entities. Other statistical methods such as z-scores         (which use ‘mean’ and up to 6 ‘standard deviations’ to include         around 95% of scores) can be employed as well. One possible         issue can be that there may be entities that have their         percentile (or similar score) in 80's and 90's irrespective of         however small their total risk score is, and thus their risk         level can always be “high” for such entities.     -   Risk levels can be calculated as percentage of total of all rule         scores. An issue with this approach alone may be that the actual         risk score for matched rules for an entity may be too skewed         towards the lower spectrum of possible score range. For example,         when sum total of all rule score contributions is 1000 from 100         rule score contributions and when the entity matches 5 critical         rules for a total of whopping 200 risk score, the risk level can         still be 20, which may not reflect the true risk level.

To avoid the above issues, embodiments can include the following approaches for determining risk levels:

Create entity groups to group related rules together. The entity groups can help localize the importance of each rule within their group and can later help the matched rules contribute to the overall risk level of the entity in a more reasonable way. For example, the details in the following points may apply.

It is assumed that the entity groups are created in such a way that the entities satisfy rules as much as possible from a single group. On the other hand the entity group needs to be compact enough so as to maximize its relevance in the overall risk level determination, e.g. the details in following points.

It is possible that a rule can be assigned multiple distinct entity groups, i.e. a rule can be present in more than one group.

Algorithm:

The risk level for any entity involves two parts. The first part uses configuration performed by an administrator to a determine maximum (max) risk score that can used as the 100. This calculation can be performed once before calculating the risk level for the selected entities. The second part uses the matched rules for an entity to determine the risk score per configured group and the max group score is used to determine the risk level as follows:

Using Configuration:

Using the risk scores specified in the rules configuration, determine the Risk Level-100:

-   -   Calculate the group score for a group G_(i) as follows

${G_{i} = {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{n}r_{j}}},$

-   -    where r_(j) is risk score of rule R_(j) in group G_(i)     -   Determine the Risk Level-100, σ₁₀₀ as follows         σ₁₀₀=max_(i=1) ^(N) G _(i), where N is total number of entity         groups

Using Entity Risk Scores:

Using the risk scores obtained from the matched rules for an entity, determine the Risk Level of the entity as follows:

-   -   Calculate the entity group score G_(ei) as follows

${G_{e\; i} = {\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{n}r_{k}}},$

-   -    where r_(k) is the risk score of matched rule R_(k) in group         G_(ei) for entity e     -   Determine the max Risk Level for entity e, σ_(e) _(max) as         follows         σ_(e) _(max) =max_(i=1) ^(N) G _(ei), where N is the total         number of entity groups     -   Calculate the scaled entity risk level σ_(e), as follows:         σ_(e)=(σ_(max)/σ₁₀₀)*100, rounding to nearest integer

An Example Machine Overview

FIG. 21 is a block schematic diagram of a system in the exemplary form of a computer system 2100 within which a set of instructions for causing the system to perform any one of the foregoing methodologies may be executed. In alternative embodiments, the system may comprise a network router, a network switch, a network bridge, personal digital assistant (PDA), a cellular telephone, a Web appliance or any system capable of executing a sequence of instructions that specify actions to be taken by that system.

The computer system 2100 includes a processor 2102, a main memory 2104 and a static memory 2106, which communicate with each other via a bus 2108. The computer system 2100 may further include a display unit 2110, for example, a liquid crystal display (LCD) or a cathode ray tube (CRT). The computer system 2100 also includes an alphanumeric input device 2112, for example, a keyboard; a cursor control device 2114, for example, a mouse; a disk drive unit 2116, a signal generation device 2118, for example, a speaker, and a network interface device 2128.

The disk drive unit 2116 includes a machine-readable medium 2124 on which is stored a set of executable instructions, i.e. software, 2126 embodying any one, or all, of the methodologies described herein below. The software 2126 is also shown to reside, completely or at least partially, within the main memory 2104 and/or within the processor 2102. The software 2126 may further be transmitted or received over a network 2130 by means of a network interface device 2128.

In contrast to the system 2100 discussed above, a different embodiment uses logic circuitry instead of computer-executed instructions to implement processing entities. Depending upon the particular requirements of the application in the areas of speed, expense, tooling costs, and the like, this logic may be implemented by constructing an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) having thousands of tiny integrated transistors. Such an ASIC may be implemented with CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor), TTL (transistor-transistor logic), VLSI (very large systems integration), or another suitable construction. Other alternatives include a digital signal processing chip (DSP), discrete circuitry (such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, inductors, and transistors), field programmable gate array (FPGA), programmable logic array (PLA), programmable logic device (PLD), and the like.
